We stayed here the 1st week of August '11. If you really, truly love the beach then you can put up with almost anything to be a short walk to/from it. That's the case of the Sands. If you have a large group I would recommend blocking a bunch of rooms on the upper level. All of the decks outside... More

I stayed at the Sands Motel the last week of August. We rented two rooms. The first room was a 1st floor two queen bed efficiency. It was clean but did not have a pleasant smell. The rooms need updating, old carpet and dated dark paneling. The second room was on the 2nd floor and had a queen and a... More

Leave all expectations for value at the entrance to Montauk. To be fair, we did come Labor Day Weekend but it hurts to drop $200 a night on a dump. Very musty and out dated but being right on the beach, I guess you don't have to try too hard. Oh, and their "queen" is really a full. More

Exceptionally clean rooms; bathrooms look as if they were recently renovated; large and well-maintained pool; very close both to the beach and to the town. On the day of our checkout we were allowed to leave a car at the lot and use all the facilities. The people are quite friendly (though not too verbose) - they left the room... More

We stayed at the Sands in Montauk this week and had the very best experience! The staff was helpful and friendly. The location was ideal for the beach, restaurants, the pool, shopping, and just about anything you would want to do was nearby. We were so pleased with the accommodations that we booked our week for next summer. I highly... More

I have been coming to Montauk since I was born and every year it seems to get better. The Sands Motel is a perfect place to spend a vacation. Its proximity to all the downtown shops and restaurants is perfect, as is the friendly, accommodating staff. Being able to go back and forth between the beach and pool is also... More

We just got back from a week in Montauk and stayed at the Sands Motel that was right across the street from the beach and you could walk everywhere which was great. We rented a one bedroom suite with a livingroom and small kitchen with a balcony for the 4 of us. Nothing fancy but clean and did the trick... More

No odors...no bugs...no problems. We even checked in early without attitude! Very clean bathroom and sheets on bed were spotless. If your looking for four star quality with amenities dont stay here but if you are looking for just a basic place to sleep;it is worth it. Beach across the street was beautiful! More

This year once again we decided to stay at the Sands for our usual week in Montauk, the last week of July 2011. I have stayed at the Sands Motel in previous years and had been disappointed with the rooms and the staff...but not this time. This time around I was pleasantly surprised. There appears to be a new cleaning... More
